Where would I be competitive??

I'm thinking about applying to MFin programs to get a good school on my resume since I'm from a non target. Where do you think I could get into w good essays? I want to go into the trading side of Sales and Trading.

Stats:
3.5 overall gpa 3.7 major (major in economics and minor in mathematics)
SA at a Middle Market firm
Internship at a private equity firm (100mm aum)
Internship with a discount broker

GMAT: currently studying for it, scoring in the high 600's/ low 700's on practice tests.

extra: couple academic honor societies, tutoring

 

Ask the folks over at Quantnet.com/forum this question and look around there. Lot of good information there about MFE programs and MFin programs.
